The Australian Hymn Book
The Australian Hymn Book was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia.
JESUS, THY BOUNDLESS LOVE TO ME
[1]
Jesus, thy boundless love to me
no thought can reach, no tongue declare;
O knit my thankful heart to thee
and reign without a rival there.
Thine wholly, thine alone I am;
Lord with thy love my heart inflame.
[2]
Lord grant that nothing in my soul
may dwell, but thy pure love alone;
now may thy love possess me whole,
my joy, my treasure, and my crown.
All coldness from my heart remove;
my every act, word, thought, be love.
[3]
Still let thy love point out my way;
what wondrous things thy love hath wrought!
Still lead me lest I go astray,
direct my work, inspire my thought,
and if I fall, soon may I hear
thy voice, and know that love is near.
[4]
In suffering be thy love my peace,
in weakness be thy love my power;
and when the storms of life shall cease,
Jesus, in that tremendous hour,
in death, as life, be thou my guide,
and save me, who for me hast died.
